The Maroons failed to show any high class football and the Indians had things much their own way throughout the game. The Illinois grid men fear the Minnesota eleven, however, and will not let down in their practice all week. Team Leaves Thuradny ville team was present for the first time since that game.

Some time is being spent with a defense to stop the off tackle drives ol half-backs Latham and Veach of the Decatur team, and a new formation to stop the place kicks of Jack Mintun was also introduced. Nothing is being left undone to keep the local goal line a row of goose eggs even if Mintun is one of the best kickers in the state.

Charlie Dressen, the quarterback who was one of the tough nuts the locals had to solve when he played here with the Decatur Indians in 1915 and 3916 is not expected to cause as much trouble as before on account of his added pounds. As a youngster Charlie was a peach of an open field runner, but this year he seems to be bothered as Noah Jones was In the last Moline game In which he played after six months in the army, and during which time he developed quite a "bay window."

It is up to the team to get busy and get some purfch 'n thair playing. Slant Show More Pep "Pep" was noticeable for its absence in the game with the twin-city team last Sunday. The Champaign team consisted of a bunch of players who had not practised together more than once or twice and if they had shown much team work In the first naif, Staleys would have suffered a defeat. With the Taylorvllle squad, the locals face an entirely different proposition. The members of that team have played together throughout the season and there are some of the players who have been with the championship teams of other seasons.

They are seasoned players and under the direction of Conch Hoover, have worked into a machine that will be hard to stop. Hoover is considered as one of the hardest-driving coaches in the state and is credited with turning out the former crack teams from Taylorville by his ability to get the players to work together and get into the game from the start for the purpose of winning. Each afternoon this week sees the Staley team on the field in the hardest workouts of the season. Coach Brannan was disgusted with the showing made by the team against Champaign and is making the team When Staley's meet Taylorvllle next Tuesday football fand of Central Illinois will see one of the grgat-t gridiron contests ever put on in this part of the country. The teams re both putting In extra hours this week preparing for the btir fray, which is eeedulefl to be the chief attraction of the homecoming entertainment and celebrations in Taylor-vllls Armistice Day.

Taylorvllle "LondlnK I'p" Taylorvllle Is "loading-up" for the SUley aggregation, according to latest reports from Taylorvllle sporting circles. It is rumored that several of the players who have been playing college football will be back t. play with their old team mated. It is a known fact that Taylorvllle is one of the strongest independent teams In the state and if Staley's hope to win the game the locals must play an entirely different class of football than they showed last Sunday against Champaign. In xhe first place, the starchwork-ers must go into the game with a full realization that they must play their best from the start if they even hop to break even in the game.

If the locals do this and get any kind of breaks at all in the "luck" they stand good chance of winning, but the score will be a close one nevertheless. Staley's Wnt improve their style of playing in the game with the Christian county stars or they will awaken at the end to see a lop (Special to The Herald) URBANA, Nov. 6. Playing with renewed vigor since their victory over the Staggmen last Saturday, the Illinois Varsity football team has begun another strenuous week of practice to get in shape for the game scheduled with Minnesota next Saturday on the rival field. Their were no serious injuries apparent after the hard game of last week and it is believed that the team will be ready for the Gophers showing the strongest lineup that It has had all year.

Applegran is the only man on the team who suffered at all from the Maroons. The husky guard crushed his foot to some extent during the PEORIA, Nov. 5. "Bernie" Smith is dead. He took his own life at 9:45 o'clock this morning at the Mitchell sanitarium at 106 Glen Oak avenue.

Zuppke's shift in the lineup for the Homecoming game was looked upon as a good move and it is probable that the eleven which started last Saturday will be the regular team from now on.
